A doubley special day

Not only is it our 10th Anniversary, but it is our baby's BIRTHDAY!! After having lots of contractions yesterday and through the night it looked like we were going to share a special date with our baby boy. Things went really fast once we got to the hospital and our baby was born at 9:00am. He was 7 pounds, 7 ounces (same as paisley) and 19 3/4 inches long. He is sooo adorable! So without further ado, here are some pictures of our (still nameless) baby.

Quick Christmas Crafts

IMG_0089IMG_0088This week we all were sick so we had a couple sick days and today we are having a snow day. Needless to say I had some time to kill with the kids! Luckily I also have some random crafty things hanging around the house so we were able to come up with a couple fun activities. First we made Santa hats. Since our refrigerator isn't magnetic we decided to hang them from our white board!

 Today for our snow day we decided to make snowmen... inside, in the warmth of our house!

IMG_0096IMG_0097           IMG_0098IMG_0102   We glued buttons on for eyes, mouth and on the snowman's jacket. We colored on a carrot nose. I cut up scraps of fabric and added a scarf for each snowman. The kids thought it would be fun for the snowmen to wear their Santa hats, so I taped them to the wall under their Santa hats. We have had some fun craft days this week!

Early Anniversary Celebrations

We were lucky enough to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary early this year. Mom Cornwall flew out to watch the kids so we could have some time away. We went and spent the night in downtown Kansas City and ate... A LOT!

 These lovely flowers were waiting in our room. I've never received a dozen roses before, it was super fun!

 While we were away the kids had a great time with Grandma making crafts and gingerbread houses!
It was an early morning taking Grandma to the airport but the kids were happy to go and get some final moments in. Luckily she will be back in a month when baby hulk (no we are not really naming him that, he doesn't have a name in case you have an opinion!) is born! :)
